AileTheAlien Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 The game defaults to no caves, since it doesn't want to set peoples' computers on fire if they're too underpowered. (It has a message to that effect.) However, that leaves out a large portion of the game's content. I think it would be better to default to a small game world, to reduce the load for the host; The extra resources regained from this could let people have caves in their games. People who know their computers can handle it can check the checkmark for always caves, but there's quite a lot of new players who just use the default settings. This would allow more people to experience the full breadth of the game, without having to first learn what settings to adjust! : ) Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/125680-default-to-small-world-with-caves/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaxckLl Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 I disagree. As you rightly pointed out, there's a good reason caves are not enabled by default. Changing the game map to small does not provide enough of a performance bump to enable caves on minimal hardware.
